honestly mate i used to work in halfords many years ago, they really aint worth the bother, ESPECIALLY the heater

You'd be better off employing someone to blow hot air on to you

What a sales man i was at halfords...lol i always used to get asked and i always put them off them

In fairnes the kettle aint THAT bad, but it does take a while, probably around 15 mins.

Its quite fast at boiling a drinks cup, even tried warming a 25 litre drum up, took 10 mins approx. Would a larger version be any good for warming up a 650 litre tank??
